The New York Knicks are quickly becoming one of the funnest teams to watch in the NBA. Their run so far this post-season has been littered with hard fought wins, and battle testing losses.
In their last game against the Pacers, New York scored a post-season high 121 points and shot 53.7% from the field and 48% from deep. Indiana’s defense looked just as bad as it as all season long.
They currently rank in the bottom 3 of all playoff teams, and last among all the teams remaining in points allowed per game (111/game). Not only that but teams in the second round, on the road off a same-series loss are just 7-20 ATS in their last 27 tries.
Over the last three years, Game 2 home teams are 12-0 straight up and 11-1 ATS.
Game 2s are home team domination, so we’re rolling with the data. Go Knicks, ew.
